Atlas of Change

UNEP has released the Latin America & the Caribbean Atlas of Our Changing Environment documenting deforestation, urbanization, pollution of water bodies and other environmental changes in the Region with satellite imagery. The visual information is striking and easy to understand. This follows the global Atlas of Our Changing Environment (UNEP's most popular publication) and the Africa Atlas of Our Changing Environment.
